A sample of my Astronomy Pictures.

M1, M33 & M97 (11 Feb 2012)

The Crab Nebula, The Triangulum Galaxy, The Owl Nebula

M42 & M43 (14 Jan 2012)

Orion Nebula & De Mairan's Nebula

M81 & M82. (12 Jan 2012)

Bode's Galaxy & Cigar Galaxy

Sun with a couple of sun-spots.. (15 Oct 2011)

M51 (27 Sept 2011)

Whirlpool Galaxy (including the supernova)

I had problems removing the hot pixels as there was a lot of stray light due to the position of the galaxy being above a street light.. so they are showing up as artifacts on the images..

Darn satellites... Second image highlights the Supernova

M27 (27 Sept 2011)

Dumbell Nebula

I like this one

M13 & M2 (27 Sept 2011)

Herclues Globular Cluster & M2 Globular Cluster

M15 & M92

Caldwell 14 (27 Sept 2011)

Just the simple Double Cluster

(well - part of it)

Ring Nebula (13 Sep 2011)

This was my first attempt at any photography after getting my observatory. 10 images stacked in Registax.

Sunspots 1131 & 1133 (12 Dec 2010)

First play with my solar filter.

Orion Nebula (03 Mar 2010)

(This was my first attempt at stacking with RegiStax in a long while and I think I took out a tad too much red, but it's still a nice image showing the dust clouds)

Northern Lights (09 Nov 2004)

(Faint green and red aurora visible from Swindon, Wilts. The reflection at the bottom is off my car roof)
